Parenting children with neurodevelopmental disorders and intellectual disabilities is associated with psychological and health problems in parents. It is also related to authoritarian and inflexible parenting, hindering the psychological adjustment of diagnosed children. Contextual therapies are developing a promising line of intervention for parents of children with intellectual disabilities.
To present a protocol for psychological flexibility in parents and its effect, aimed at reducing the impact of raising a child with a disability.
Standardised questionnaires and self-monitoring at pre, post, and at follow-up were administered to assess psychological changes after the intervention.
Intervention was followed by an increase in general health and a decrease in psychological inflexibility, private eventsuppression, and parental stress at follow-up. An increase in supportive interactions and a decrease in punitive interactions were observed. Training parents in psychological flexibility may improve the adjustment of parents and children with intellectual disabilities.
养育患有神经发育障碍和智力残疾的儿童与父母的心理和健康问题相关。这也与专制和僵化的育儿方式有关，阻碍了已确诊儿童的心理调适。情境疗法正在为智障儿童的父母开发一种有前景的干预方法。
提出一项针对父母心理灵活性的方案及其效果，旨在减少养育残疾儿童的影响。
在干预前、干预后及随访时进行标准化问卷调查和自我监测，以评估干预后的心理变化。
干预后，随访时总体健康状况有所改善，心理灵活性、对个人事件的抑制以及父母压力均有所降低。观察到支持性互动增加，惩罚性互动减少。对父母进行心理灵活性培训可能会改善智障父母及其子女的调适情况。
